So I’m finally actually using my compression module to compress my own site. I am lame for waiting this long to do it.

The rugby dude is finally falling down the blog. Just a few more posts and we’ll all be rid of him.

I really need to upgrade dasBlog so I can edit posts. Dennis really needs to finish upgrading arena1.com to net-1.1 so I can do that.

sigh

After releasing version 4 of HttpCompress, I received some mail from Ian Anderson that contained some bug fixes that he found, along with one originally discovered by Simon Fell. Now that I have a nice little Subversion repo for the project, integrating the changes and making a release was pretty simple.

You can grab version five over here.

Of course, I forgot to add a link to the new HttpCompress. I am tired.

I just uploaded a new version of the HttpCompressionModule, now called HttpCompress. Please grab a copy and try it out! The big new features for this release are path-based and content-type-based exclusions from compression. Now you can tell the filter to ignore certain files or output types, which is especially handy for things like gif and jpeg output. Hopefully this marks the rebirth of this little project.

If you’re interested, I have a subversion server running now. If you’d like to contribute, let me know and we can talk access. :)
